Un barrio marginado no es un barrio marginal. A propósito de Nazaret (Valencia)
2016
This article takes us to Nazaret, an outlying district on Valencia’s waterfront which we consider from three complementary perspectives: the synchronic vision of its current socio-spatial structure, the diachronic and processual contextualization of the changes it has undergone in the last century, and the perceptions and images which characterize the neighbourhood, together with the features, activity and incidence of its associative fabric. The analysis focuses on the behaviour of a set of interconnected factors, including the impact of the port and urban development policy, its socioeconomic make-up, the consistency of its associative fabric and its relations with government. Whereas the…
Potential approach in marginalizing Gibbs models
1999
Abstract Given an undirected graph G or hypergraph potential H model for a given set of variables V , we introduce two marginalization operators for obtaining the undirected graph G A or hypergraph H A associated with a given subset A ⊂ V such that the marginal distribution of A factorizes according to G A or H A , respectively. Finally, we illustrate the method by its application to some practical examples. With them we show that potential approach allow defining a finer factorization or performing a more precise conditional independence analysis than undirected graph models. Finally, we explain connections with related works.
Los inicios del programa de artes del Instituto Técnico Obrero Empresarial del Polígono Industrial Don Bosco
2014
Este trabajo recoge una experiencia en el Instituto Técnico Obrero Empresarial Don Bosco durante el inicio de la actividad musical de dicha institución y los resultados y el posterior camino que esta actividad inicial supuso. Durante un mes se trabajó con todos los niveles educativos de esta institución para introducirles en el mundo de la música, pero desde una perspectiva específica destinada a potenciar su creatividad como futuros empresarios y a mejorar su formación personal cultural. En definitiva, este acercamiento a la música se promovió como un intento de conseguir empresarios creativos y al mismo tiempo seres humanos abiertos a la belleza de las manifestaciones artísticas como acti…
Mary Wollstonecraft och autonomins uppkomst:
2018
Uppsatsen granskar marginaliseringen av kvinnor i filosofins historia genom att fästa uppmärksamhet vid hur filosofihistorieskrivningen bidragit till denna marginalisering. Utgångspunkten är J. B Schneewinds inflytelserika bok The Invention of Autonomy (1998) och det faktum att Schneewind, trots ett explicit intresse för en egalitär moralfilosofi och ett brett fokus på moralfilosofis utveckling, inte inkluderat en enda kvinnlig tänkare. Uppsatsen består av fem avsnitt. Först presenterar jag några generella synpunkter på filosofihistorieskrivningens marginaliseringsmekanismer. Det andra avsnittet presenterar Schneewinds huvudargument och i det tredje granskar jag hans val att inte inkludera …
Cultural institutions as agents of urban and community regeneration in the (post-)pandemic city. The case of the «Laboratorio Zen Insieme» in Palermo
2022
Although all cities in the world have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, its impacts on the territories, yet to be understood, are unevenly distributed, revealing extremely varied imbalances depending on the places. However, it is clear that the virus and its variants have aggravated pre-existing socio-spatial inequalities, creating new ones and bringing attention back to those implications between space, planning, public health and citizenship that are at the origins of contemporary urbanism. In a reference framework in which the crisis is globalized but unequal and in the absence of a welfare system capable of responding to the urgencies of the most marginalized social contexts and g…
Modeling Marginalization: Emergence, Social Physics, and Social Ethics of Bullying
2020
In this paper, we outline the construction and initial simulation experiment results of the Marginalization model (MARG). We experiment under different group parameters because the theoretical paradigm we follow views bullying as a result of social processes. Our primary research question explores the possibility of bullying emergence as agents select interaction partners in a university setting. Based on the simulated process, our results take indications of the stress of marginalization in a student group as a proxy for emer-gent marginalization. MARG simulates two types of interactions between pairs of students: forced and hang-out interactions. In the latter, students decide whether to …
Biografic turning point in lifetime of individuals living in degraded contexts. The role of resilience.
2020
In the course of their lives all people experience events such as the loss of a parent, a child, job or sometimes violence, after which life is no longer the same. In these moments the regular, repetitive and comforting course of life changes because the event is the turning point that changes the direction of the subject's lifetime. The paper is focused on a study of 60 cases in which resilience intervenes in the biographies of individuals, living in conditions of socio-spatial marginality and high social vulnerability, to restore the existential imbalance of a biographical discontinuity represented by a traumatic event. The problem of the research focuses on understanding the role of resi…
De l’aliénation et l’exclusion vers la fusion avec la communauté dans les écrits durassiens
2017
The work of Marguerite Duras shows the author’s predilection for depicting alienated outcasts living on the fringes of society. Her heroines reject consumerism and traditional values – material security, employment, and the established order. Exclusion also applies to the characters who – forced into exile – feel downgraded and deprived of identity. Their marginalization is a conscious choice, a form of defence, and a chance of survival. Awareness of exclusion entails different – often ambivalent – attitudes. It leads to defiance, sometimes self-destruction, often frustration, despair, and – paradoxically – the need for human contact. This ‘emergency’ return to the world helps to overcome p…

The article presents Voluntary Labour Corps (OHP) as an educational institution of the labour market in Poland. It attends difficult, young people who are socially excluded. The OHP is seen as the institution of the second chance, which embraces the needs of young people in a competent and complex way. It concentrates on providing the youth with proper education and preventing them from further social exclusion. The institution undertakes actions to include the youth in normal, adult life. Research shows that it is effective in its work and more than half of the graduates obtain a stable professional and social position
